The Science News in High Schools program brings Science News magazine and related educational resources to over 5 million high school students across the United States and worldwide annually. At the Society, we continue to hear from students and teachers that these materials have changed their classrooms and truly inspired “a genuine curiosity in scientific topics. The program offers timely
applications of scientific content that old textbooks cannot provide. Our resources help teachers meet the needs of diverse audiences, from students in underserved areas to rural and inner-city schools. More- over, the resources help students at a variety of learning levels, including passionate young scientists who crave learning about the latest in research and innovation and those just starting their STEM journeys.
